Ekalinga Mahatmya a 15th CE text mentions the Sisodiya word for the first time and the oldest Manuscript of that text is from 1858 CE, second oldest from 1911 CE. That means barely 167 & 114 years old. 2/8 https://x.com/KuttajiBhonkle/s...

Now let's examine the date of Salyaparva of Navarasanaraya Pt Aavalikar published a commentary on Navarasanarayana text. He clearly said that he had only one recent manuscript of that text and all conclusions he made are on that one manuscript only 3/8 https://x.com/KuttajiBhonkle/s...

This manuscript is from SK 1751/1829 CE. Aavalikar wrote commentary on that manuscript in 1964 CE, means manuscript is 135 years old from 1964 & 196 years old from today 2025. It's Still older than oldest manuscript (167 yrs only) of Ekaling Mahatmya 4/8 https://x.com/KuttajiBhonkle/s...

And it is only this manuscript which has later era interpolations like Firangi, Habshi etc. That is why Aavalikar thought that this might be a 16-17th CE text. Now let's see what a person who found 5 more older manuscripts of that text says about it 5/8 https://x.com/KuttajiBhonkle/s...

A well known literature researcher Yusufkhan Pathan discovered 5 more older manuscripts of Navrasanarayan & Published that text. What important is, none of those manuscripts mentions post 14th ce customs or post 14th ce entities in india like Firangi 6/8 https://x.com/KuttajiBhonkle/s...

The oldest found manuscript among those is from 1693 CE on which he was heavily relied upon. Again this manuscript mentions Shahannava Kuli Bhupala Sisode Maratha. Here's that extract & there's no mention of Habshi, firangi or any post 14th CE entity 7/8 https://x.com/KuttajiBhonkle/s...

Not just Yusufkhan Pathan but other prominent liiterary scholors who studied that text and its language came to the same consensus that Navarasanaya's text was written prior to 14th Century only. And this is how scholors finalizes the date of a text 8/8 https://x.com/KuttajiBhonkle/s...
